So i choose them. If gettext() can become standard, or can be included in most BSD systems, then using of gettext() makes sense. The idea of i18n is the same, patch will be smaller. If anybody is interested, i'll remake it for libintl. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-i18n" in the body of the message
